[Description by Uncle Ricky for contributor Sam Hale] This exhibit was contributed by Tony Taylor for presentation in The Sam Hale Collection. Part Two of this incredible production and aircheck composite of WQXI is focused from 1976-1979, but just like Part One, it’s not presented chronologically. Instead, we are re-introduced to the “NEW QXI” more than once, and bits of WQXI-FM appear infrequently until the station becomes 94Q – even though the “NEW QXI” ends the exhibit. The presentation is quite abstract, but it represents some of the most creative format radio in this Repository. Outstanding Talent! Production galore! Wonderful classic aircheck bits and fantastic ideas, and especially so when you realize this was ONE “local” radio station on 790Khz with a “sister” FM licensed to Smyrna. Apparently, they did hot “CHR” on AM until at least 1979. Or maybe it was just appropriate that this composite end in ’79. This exhibit features Barry Chase, Scott Woodside, Coyote McCloud, Nightrain Lane, Gary McKee, John Leader, JJ Jackson, Dickie Shannon, Jack Hurst, Tom Rivers, Rhett Walker, Terry McPatrick, Jack Fitzgerald, Daryl Daquiri, Gerald S. Blum, Gary Cory, Chris Morgan, Kelly McCoy, and more. There’s even a tribute to the engineer. As always, the Repository welcomes additional information and/or commentary via subscriber COMMENT, below. regarding WQXI Composite, 1968-1979, Part Two ©2006 REELRADIO, Inc. All Rights Reserved
